    My condolences to the Schramm family. Mr. Charles, may it help you to know that Psalms 34:18 read: God is close to the brokenhearted; he save those who are crushed in spirit. Yes, He care so he can give you and your family the needed strength to continue on. Please find some comfort from this fact, in your time of need.
